Rhubarb Radio to broadcast rugby commentary

Rhubarb Radio is now covering match day live commentary of this season’s home and away games on UK soil for Wakefield Trinity.

Coverage includes full live uninterrupted commentary from all stadiums with the station’s sports team, which has been enhanced especially for the Wakefield Trinity coverage. It includes pre-match build up including interviews with coaching staff and players ahead of the game, and post-match reaction.

The “Local Sport Live” show on a Saturday afternoon will also review or preview that weekend’s games from the Super League.

Ben Matthews, Rhubarbs Radio’s Head of Sport said, “It’s great news that we’ve managed to secure this sports programme for the station. We have built a superb sports team of dedicated people with a vast knowledge of Wakefield Trinity and Rugby League in general.”

Jon Butler, Programme Director at Rhubarb Radio added, “As Wakefield’s only radio station based in the city, we offer our listeners a wide range of community programming covering every aspect of our city’s lifestyle, and local sport, with Wakefield Trinity in particular, an important part of our coverage.”
